      Clemens Th. Schedler, Austria (1998)

      Born in Munich on April 15, 1962, grew up in Vorarlberg, has lived in Vienna since 1983.

      Enters the world of visual design at age 20: one year of art history in Salzburg, four years of commercial art in Vienna at the Höhere Graphische Bundes- Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt, three years freelance work for Walter Bohatsch and later for two other (at the time) fun ad agencies. Since 1990, free and freelance visual designer, concept advisor, and project developer.

      In my work, I simply
      try to bake good bread.

      Visual resonance spaces
      for looking, reading, and seeing:

      For me, power lies
      in the dignity of the plain,
      in the movement of the simple,
      and in solutions
      that lie close to home.

      Solution means when it is good for everyone.
